So the title perfectly captures the essence of the entire experience that I am going to share with you guys today. Leh Ladakh had been my dream destination and I wanted to cover the entire stretch for a long time, but couldn’t due to family commitments and lack of motivation. I’ve been to many amazing national and international destinations, but still, my heart craved for a trip to Leh Ladakh. In this feature, I’m going to give you a few tips and tricks (from my own experience) to traverse the sturdy, sometimes haughty, but innately picturesque Leh Ladakh Mountains. We both decided to do a road trip to Leh with 2 other friends and planned the vacation strategically during June for total 10 days after properly researching about the Leh Ladakh weather.
Our transporter will meet and greet you in Manali and take you on an adventurous journey to Leh. Our first destination of the tour will be Jispa. So, pack up your bags and head on for the destination while crossing through Attal tunnel and Keylong. Arrive Jispa and enjoy an overnight stay in a hotel/camp. Accommodation & Dinner Only
Have a healthy breakfast at the hotel of Jispa then check out from the hotel. Traverse the picturesque landscapes, including the awe-inspiring Baralacha and Taglang La passes, the expansive Skyangchu Thang, and the enchanting Indus Valley. Upon reaching Leh, settle into your hotel accommodation. Renowned as the prominent city of Ladakh, Leh captivates visitors with its majestic mountain ranges and tranquil lakes, providing a unique and memorable tourism experience.

After breakfast cover the spots in and around Leh. Major tourist attractions to cover will be Leh Palace, Shanti Stupa, Magnetic Hill and Sangam point of Indus and Zanskar River, Gurudwara Pather Sahib and hall of fame museum and Local Market.

Early Morning, check out from the hotel and head on to Nubra Valley. We will drive through the famous Khardungla Pass which is one of the highest motorable passes in the world situated at an altitude of 5359m. Other places to cover enroute will be Deskit & Hunder Villages. While visiting these villages do not forget to take a ride on Double hump Bactarian camels (ride on your own). Reach the destination and spend the night in pre-booked camps. Accommodation,Breakfast & Dinner
After Breakfast, check out from the hotel and drive to Pangong Lake. The clear water of this lake reflects sky color giving it an effect of changing colors from blue to turquoise/ light pink and so on throughout the day & night. Another amazing fact about this lake is that it freezes completely during winters despite being saline. Overnight stay will be in Pangong camps. Accommodation,Breakfast & Dinner
Begin your day by awakening to the tranquility of this enchanting location. Enjoy a leisurely breakfast amidst the serenity. Following this, return to Leh.

If you lose your passport, at least you have a copy. Also some accommodations may require a copy. While most places have a copier, there are some instances, such as Airbnb, where we have had to find a place to make copies to give to our host.
Now that you can see the forecast at least 10 days in advance, you should have no trouble packing for your trip.
